Once again, some of the Cayman Islands’ longest serving politicians have attacked the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. During the budget debate in the Legislative Assembly last week, independent backbench member Anthony Eden and opposition leader McKeeva Bush both took aim at plans for a conference on issues impacting the group and criticised Cayman Islands Governor Helen Kilpatrick for offering her support for the cause. They also called for a referendum on the issue of same-sex unions.
